(rough), a podcast by Yours Truly, recently spoke with Neon Indian, or Alan Palomo, about the story behind his track "Street Level." Although you really need to listen to the podcast to fully understand where "Street Level" comes from, know that the story involves a lost laptop, drunken night, and Alan Palomo "googling" himself. You can take a look at the rest of the story behind the song and album, VEGA INTL. Night School, along with a little oral history and videos of Neon Indian, on Yours Truly. Take a listen to the "Street Level" podcast below:
